General Safety Instructions
1. To reduce the risk and ensure safety at all times, this
section of the manual details a number of safety rules
which should always be followed.
2. Read and observe all Warning and Caution hazard alert
messages in this manual and on the equipment
3. Always use the proper tool for the job. Repair or replace
worn or damaged tools before starting any installation.
NOTE:
Proper tools must be used to perform the
installation procedures in this manual. Many
of these procedures require special tools.
Installation Safety Precautions
1. Never strike any part of the brackets with a steel hammer.
2. Safety protection should always be worn as protection
from flying debris, and other airborne matter when
working with tools, power tools, and welding equipment.
Failure to turn off vehicle motor before
commencing work could allow vehicle to
move which, if not avoided, could result
in death or serious injury.
3. When welding is required, ensure that the battery ground
cable is disconnected and that all electrical equipment is
completely isolated before welding is initiated
(Figure 1).
4. Before starting any welding, ensure that the area worked on is
cleaned of debris and combustible material. Have a charged
fire extinguisher readily available and know how to use it.

IMPORTANT:
When welding use a procedure and filler
metal with sound, good quality weld while
protecting the welding operator and others.
An AWS E70XX filler metal, used in conjunction
with either GMW (gas shield solid wire,
FCAW (gas shield flux core wire), or SMAW
(AC or DC stick) is recommended.
Over welding may cause distortion or
damage and under welding may not develop
sufficient strength. Failure to follow proper
weld procedures could cause failure or
fracture which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
